Figure 1

Gametocytes on thick blood film (TBF) and magnetically fractionated (MF) preparations. Gametocytes as observed on TBF in the ranges of 101–102 (A) and 100–101 (B) as compared with gametocytes as observed on MF preparations in the ranges of 101–102 (C), 100–101 (D), 10-1–100 (E) and 10-2-10-1 (F). Images were obtained on a Nikon Eclipse TE2000 -N Microscope with a 1000 × optical magnification with a Nikon LH-M100CB-1 Camera.
